So I mentioned that I'm an overachiever mom who likes to make a big deal out of birthdays. I've been waiting for Zoe's birthday for the entire month just to see if our card made the Sunny Side-Up show on Sprout. Unfortunately you have no way of knowing if your card made it beforehand.
At 6:30 I got online to see if her card was out there and if there was any mention of making the show. The card was on-line, along with 25 other cards. Our chances of making it on the show were slim. There were some amazing cards for some other overachiever parents.
At 7:15 last Tuesday morning I got a call from my mom. Her voice was high pitched and I think I could understand that my card made the show. Apparently the host even gave some kuddos to the card. I couldn't wait to get home that night and watch the re-cap of the morning show. Zoe doesn't wake up until 9:30-10:00 in the morning, so I knew we'd be seeing it in the evening.
We went to dinner, went to see N at his work, had an impromptu party with daddy and then rushed home. Zoe fell asleep on the way home, but I wasn't going to let her sleep. We were moments away from her card being on the television. Along with the Sprout folks wishing her a happy birthday.
That's when we discovered that the morning birthdays are different that the night ones.
Her card made the show, my mom saw it, but Zoe has absolutely no idea that she was on television.
It was a sad day for this mommy.
At least Zoe had "the best birthday ever!"
